Application Response Time Alerts

This one was born out of our own need. We have been noticing occasional slowdowns of the DripStat game server. In these cases response time goes extremely high due to MongoDB not being able to keep up with huge amount of requests.

Up till now, we had to rely on our players on reddit and twitter to inform us when this happened. Sometimes this would mean the game would be down for many hours until reddit was checked by someone.

So today we are putting in automated alerts for High Application Response Times.

You will also notice we have updated the look and feel of the alerts tab.
